Android Wear 2.0 will arrive this February 8 with two new smart watches. And now we have been able to have data on what will be the cheapest of the two smartwatches to be launched, they are not to be disappointed. And is that said watch will be nothing new, but it will be more of the same.
No news
If Google wanted the news of smart watches to arrive with the new operating system Android Wear 2.0 It would have been better if no new watches were launched, but simply updated the old ones, which are available at a cheaper price. But it doesn't make much sense to launch new expensive watches with a new operating system.
And now we know that the LG Watch Style, one of the two watches to be launched on February 8, the cheaper of the two, will be a smartwatch that will not present any novelty. its RAM memory will be 512 MB that we have seen on all other mobiles. Your battery will be just over 200 mAh, so it will not surprise with its autonomy either.
But it is that, to this we must add that it will not count neither with GPS nor with heart rate monitor, so its functions as a sports watch practically disappear. AND it will not have NFC either, so payments can not be made with the smartwatch.
Of course, you may say that it will be a cheap watch. Well no. Its price will be $ 249, which will probably become around 250-300 euros, for the cheapest watch that will be launched. Very far from what a standard user can pay for a smartwatch that, today (or rather on February 8) is still useless.
Android Wear 2.0
So the only hope that really remains is that Android Wear 2.0 count on a whole series of important news for smart watches that arrive through your operating system. In principle it should be so. But one thing we hoped for was that the clocks had more autonomy, something that we will not see with the absence of GPS. Neither will we see mobile payments with the absence of NFC. And we do not see cheap watches that at least serve to notify us of the notifications we receive and that have a battery that makes them easy to use and not in watches whose battery we have to be charging every few hours.
We will see if they finally announce at least that the watches already available on the market, and at least some of them inexpensive, will update to Android Wear 2.0 and it becomes a smart purchase.
